Weight savings
How much weight do you think you would save by replacing most of the C4s Hardware with Titanium Nuts and Bolts? Would the cost be to much for what little is saved? Allready have lexan rear hatch no blower motor or AC stuff, cruise control or smog junk on it. Pipe

How much does your car weigh? Where did you get your hatch? I would think the nuts and bolts wouldn't be worth the cost.
I'm down to 2820# half tank gas with my 85 drag car. Still want to change hood, doors, glass and brakes. Think I can take off another 250.

Just thought of something I changed over from the sport seats to the manual style seats. That gotta save a bit without all the bladders and pumps in the both seats. Pipe O by the way looking out the rear lexan hatch is kinda weird it distortes the view a bit. They tell ya when you order it that its not for street use.
